An imaging apparatus measures shake of the apparatus using a gyro sensor, performs “a center stop control” until receiving an instruction to start recording the still picture, and performs “a lens correction control” after the start of exposure in the imaging apparatus. The center stop control controls the correction lens position to stop a correction lens at an optical axis center position (position of the correction lens at which an optical axis of the imaging lenses coincides with an optical axis of a correction lens). The lens correction control controls the correction lens position to correct blurring of the image formed on an imaging element based on the measuring result. The imaging apparatus returns the correction lens to the optical axis center position before receiving a next instruction to start a next recording, and then performs the center stop control on the correction lens.
